Positive Value Leadership - Capstone

Yes. Calibre Credits™ are awarded where the learner passes the relevant IOWL assessment requirements, completed through the relevant assessment model. They are awarded by the Global Institute for Calibre & Integrity™ and form part of the learner's professional standing record.

Candidates complete the required learning engagement before taking a knowledge component and a structured reflective component. Both must be passed. The reflective component examines the quality, authenticity and depth of reasoning and application; it is not a personality test. Successful candidates may receive between 31 and 50 Calibre Credits™.

IOWL Positive Value Leadership courses are delivered online as a structured, personal journey of self-propelled learning, reflection and transformation. The course is not taught entirely through live tutorials.

Learners work through guided Smartboard learning, reflective activities, coursework and, where applicable, assessment. The Smartboard introduces the course concepts, frameworks and activities that each learner is expected to study, consider and apply to their own life, leadership and professional practice.

Live, interactive virtual tutorials support and deepen this personal learning journey. They provide opportunities to explore key ideas, discuss experiences, ask questions, test understanding and reflect with tutors and other learners. Tutorials reinforce the learning process, but they do not replace the Smartboard learning, personal reflection or coursework.

Positive Value Leadership is designed to be transformative, not merely informational. Transformation develops over time through honest reflection, purposeful action and the practical application of learning. It cannot be achieved simply by attending tutorials or passively receiving information.

Before and during the course, learners receive induction, clear instructions, important dates, advance guidance and reminders. Each learner is then expected to familiarise themselves with the platform, follow the instructions provided, manage their own progress and navigate to the appropriate learning activities and live events.

This approach reflects the principle of “Integrous Agency” at the heart of Positive Value Leadership: taking personal responsibility for one’s own development, acting purposefully and approaching the course with a “can-do” attitude and, ideally, an “it’s done” attitude.

Many leadership courses focus primarily on capability and competency: what a leader knows, what they can do and how effectively they can perform.

Positive Value Leadership also develops calibre: the character, judgement, integrity and values that shape how, why and for whose benefit a leader uses their capability.

The course does not simply provide additional leadership techniques. It requires learners to examine their own values, decisions, conduct and impact through a structured journey of learning, reflection and practical application. The aim is to strengthen the inner foundation from which leadership decisions and actions arise.

IOWL therefore approaches effective leadership as the combination of calibre, capability and competency. Capability may enable a leader to achieve results, but calibre helps determine whether that capability is exercised with sound judgement, integrity, responsibility and appropriate regard for others.

Because calibre is not only developed but also formally assessed, eligible learners may be awarded Calibre Credits™. Candidates must complete the required learning engagement and pass both a knowledge component and a structured reflective component. The reflective assessment considers the quality, authenticity and depth of the learner’s reasoning and application; it is not a personality test.

Successful candidates may receive between 31 and 50 Calibre Credits™, awarded by the Global Institute for Calibre & Integrity™. These form part of the learner’s professional standing record and, together with the Statement of Professional Standing, contribute to their Passport of Probity™ record.

A Positive Value Leadership course is therefore not only about becoming a more capable leader. It is about developing—and evidencing—the calibre to use that capability responsibly, purposefully and with integrity.
